EuroGamer - Lumines wasn't any old PSP launch title. It was the PSP launch title, and arguably the best pure puzzler since Tetris (a title it held onto until Drop 7 came along, of course). The synesthetic concerns of Q Entertainment, which first strutted along in ten-inch platforms in 2000's Space Channel 5 before taking a turn for the metaphysical in the following year's Rez, were melded perfectly with simple, grid-based puzzling. Like Rez before it, Lumines felt like a celebration of club culture - or, with its lazy rhythms and ability to consume whole hours, more a celebration of post-club culture.
Wccftech had the great pleasure of speaking with Tetsuya Mizuguchi at the recent Reboot event, discussing synesthesia, Tetris Effect, Rez, Lumines and more.

I'm probably the only one who genuinely liked Child of Eden (of course Rez is better though). I hope we see a full VR rhythm game from him next,
you are not alone mate.. I even send him and his company few posts to make Child of eden VR..but they never replied.. I bought Child of eden like more than 5 times and gave it as presents to friends...great game
During their Spring Nindies Showcase, Nintendo announced that the 2005 rhythm puzzle game, Lumines, is heading to the Nintendo Switch sometime this spring as Lumines Remastered.
